Sebrinah Yeo April 14, 2021 0

Yes! Yes! Yes! When it comes to food, especially asian food, there's no denying that Nasi Lemak is a true winner! It is the food staple of every Malaysian home! You must atleast have had Nasi Lemak atleast ONCE in your entire life okay! If not you will regret!

Before that, I would like to wish Selamat Berbuka Puasa to everyone and now you can even break fast with our Malaysian homegrown food brand Tapaulah as they actually just has launched their very own Signature Nasi Lemak series featuring eight variants of Malaysia’s favourite dish, all things nasi lemak. Nasi lemak fans will be spoilt for choice!

I had mine ordered for sure and I love how it arrived on time! It was delicious to be honest! I love the blue pea rice, it was just beautiful to even look at it. It tastes heavenly with so much aroma and fragrance.

Imagine sinking your teeth in such delicacy especially when you are preparing to break fast. I actually ordered 2 set for me and my husband. Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng Berempah and Nasi Lemak Kari Ayam Kapitan with the one meter teh tarik Boba - it comes included.

Anchor Extra Yield Cooking Cream Recipes

steamboat

Sebrinah Yeo February 08, 2021 0

This time of the year, everyone is searching for recipes, because it is the new norm! So if you're stuck at home like me, then time to turn things up a notch! With Chinese Niu Year 2021 around the corner, I recently discovered the new Anchor Extra Yield Cooking Cream that I can easily and conveniently use to elevate my cooking recipes instantly!

You see, I have a pet peeve for cooking creams out there, because it is either too thick, too creamy, too milky, too little or too much and the packaging makes it harder to store the balance for the next cooking on another day. That's why I always avoid cooking cream my entire life until now!

So what makes Anchor Extra Yield Cooking Cream different from the rest? Simple! It requires no reduction, is heat-stable, produces no caking or drying; It retains a full, natural dairy flavour to create pasta dishes easily and consistently. Perfect for creamy paste, soup, purees and so much more recipe that can be enhanced with this!

It is so easy to use! Like for hot pot aka steamboat soup, just add 100g to every 2 litre of soup base and add your condiments and seasoning. You can add more if you want a creamy soup base for your hot pot! It is versatile and pre-reduced dairy cooking cream that pairs perfectly with clear soups or even heavier soups like Tom Yam or Mala soup!

Why elevate with cooking cream because it is a known fact that a good cooking cream with the right texture and consistency and flavour, can make your meals more flavourful and richer, giving you a silky mouthfeel without the overbearing-ness of the milky taste! Basically it is what I have been wishing for a long time now!

With the limited time we have today, this is like my instant quick-fix cooking cream, I can even just take it out from the fridge, pour a little cooking cream into the mashed potatoes with salted butter and mix them well and I get a creamy buttery savoury mashed potato that I crave all the time! So if you have yet to get your hands on this, then you should! Gonna save your time and brain-power because it is so easy to use and store and use again without having to worry about contamination or without having to crack your brain to get the right way to use a cooking cream to get the consistency right! We ain't no chef, but with Anchor Extra Yield Cooking Cream now, it gives me hope to be a home chef for my family!

You can get the Anchor Extra Yield Cooking Cream at Baking supply shops near you, check the list HERE!

yee Sang

Sebrinah Yeo January 21, 2020 0

This 2020 Chinese New Year, if you haven't decided where to feast for this auspicious occasion, then The Bar'n will be the best choice to pick. For its spacious and comfortable environment that each venue carries their own special animal identity. It is a place that has the best of both world -food and drinks!

They also have Yee Sang that you can order to celebrate Chinese New Year with your loved ones!

And what's better to pair it with their amazing meals and wines or alcohol to unwind and dine through the night!

Ps. You can opt for Vegetarian Yee Sang.

We also had the Meat Lover's Platter (RM92) that combines a variety of meat like the deep fried luncheon meat fries, tender juicy chicken wings, marinated and full of flavour pork satay, smoked chicken sausage, dynamite chilli chicken sausage, crispy pork belly and the juicy grilled Lágrima inter coaster pork meat (the meat between the ribs).

Perfect to match with white wine or beer!

Then we also had the Pescatore Pizza (RM35) that is made with homemade tomato marinara with mozzarella cheese, super fresh sautéed prawns, mussels and squids!

Very appetising for a pizza and not too overwhelming. Pairs beautifully with white wine too!

I preferred red wine for its antioxidant and we ordered a bottle of their house wine just to unwind and dine the night away.

The Bar'n actually hosts a different theme at each venue and for IOI City Mall, Putrajaya it was Daisy and Lucky the cow.

I love how the area was decorated! It was cosy and at the same time fun!

And we met Ricky who only had one goal in his mind. And that is to make sure everyone leaves happily. His passion in the restaurant is just inspiring because of his love for the culinary industry where he was a chef for over 30 years.

During our dinner there, he was checking in with people on their experience and just genuinely getting to know us. He was really friendly and approachable. You will surely feel welcome here at The Bar'n, IOI City Mall, Putrajaya.

They also have a Cigar room that is properly filtered and closed up that you can have private events or meetings with your business partners.

Sebrinah Yeo January 03, 2020 0

Growing up in my Chinese culture, Pineapple tarts is like a must for every Chinese New Year! It is the ultimate treat to have and the best to savour wherever you go for visiting! However nowadays there's too many out there, no one knows for sure which is the best?

I brought my son to visit Swee Bee by Baker Dave, to try their Pineapple tarts as they are homemade and a recipe made by Baker Dave's mother.

A cosy hidden cafe in Plaza Damas 3, that truly brings out a vibe of home sweet home with good comfort food and beverages.

Me and my son took many photos here because it just felt like a loving environment to be at. And their food variety are aplenty! Very generous in portion and all freshly made to order.

And because Chinese New Year is around the corner, they are already selling out on their Pineapple Tarts from their loyal customers over the years. We also had the privilege to try some taster and it was delish!

Sweet and sour pineapple tarts that has a mild buttery texture that makes the entire pineapple tart experience worth with every bite!

If you are still looking for last-minute shopping for good homemade Pineapple Tarts then better call them to check before you head over to shop for these. Because the packaging is so lovely that it just suit the occasion beautifully!

McDonald's Portuguese Chicken Burger Malaysia

world

Sebrinah Yeo July 12, 2019 17

Every time I get hungry, I always treat myself to good food. This time around, I was attracted to the Portuguese Chicken Burger that was newly launched by McDonald's Malaysia as part of their 'Discover the World' campaign.

Inspired by the sights, sounds and flavours of Portugal, it really intrigued me to know how this burger will excite my taste buds! Because it features a juicy fried chicken patty that is dipped in a unique piri-piri sauce served with a bed of mixed vegetables and fresh lettuce. Best of all, it is sandwiched in between its brand new chilli flake bun!

After a long day out, my family decided to have a go at McDonald's Malaysia's Portuguese Chicken Burger that was launched as part of their 'Discover the World' campaign! Ordering was really simple at the self-ordering kiosk. We specifically requested for desserts after having out meal, knowing the fact that the Dinosaur McFlurry was back by popular demand and still available too.

A set of Portuguese Chicken Burger is served with French Fries and a Fanta Grape McFreeze or a regular coke, and it is priced from RM16.99. However, I am a fan of Ribena, so it was hard for me to not order the Ice Blended Ribena. Well, it's still under the grape family (hehehe)!

I love how the packaging looks like, because although it looks simple, it also looks very exciting, like something is waiting for me inside!

The colour of the burger looks super vibrant and fun!

The sauce was almost about to ooze out and it was very fragrant, to be honest. It is hard to explain the burst of flavours in the sauce, but its piri-piri goodness did stand out!

The best part was actually the crispy, super succulent and juicy fried chicken patty that left me wanting for more!

I loved it! It's was very different from all the other burgers that I have tasted in my life and this was really a one and only. Actually, it is very hard to compare because there's nothing to compare...

You just gotta try it for yourself!

Of course, we enjoyed their Dinosaur McFlurry and we all went crazy over it.

What's even more exciting is the new Augmented Reality game called Catching Nonando, in which we would need to catch as many Nonando Chickens as we can in 60 seconds to collect points! We will also be rewarded with discounts on the Portuguese Chicken Burger depending on how many Nonandos we can catch! The best part is there's a leaderboard that will track the top players that will stand a chance to win 50,000 Air Asia BIG Points!

To play the game, you would just need to click on the Facebook link available on McDonald's Malaysia's corporate website or official Facebook page.
